High Salary SG

Khris Middleton, MIL vs DEN ($7,900): Middleton has been over value in three of his last four. The Nuggets are 15th against shooting guards in their last 15 games and continue to struggle on the road with their defense. Middleton is a solid second scoring option beside Antetokounmpo and typically puts up good rebounding numbers while chipping in with defense. He should be over value in this one. ****

Will Barton, DEN at MIL ($7,700): Barton has been over value in seven of his last eight. He’s coming off a 39 fantasy point performance against the Spurs. The Bucks are third against shooting guards in their last 15 games, so this is a tough matchup, but Barton is playing better than any Denver player not named Nikola Jokic right now. He should be around value once again. ***

High Value SG

Gary Harris, DEN at MIL ($6,000): Harris barely hit value on Tuesday against the Spurs. Prior to that, he had missed value in games against the Suns and Rockets. He needs 23.7 fantasy points to reach value on Thursday. If Jamal Murray is out, Harris should see extra time as the perimeter playmaker. Even if Murray plays, expect Harris to step up and deliver a solid performance. ***

Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, LAL at MIN ($5,700): Caldwell-Pope netted 29 fantasy points against the Pelicans on Wednesday. If Isaiah Thomas manages to stay in this game, I still maintain that Thomas will do more damage to Josh Hart’s value than Caldwell-Pope’s. Caldwell-Pope is also the cheaper option of the two, which helps him exceed value easier. He’ll get you at least 25 fantasy points in this one. ****
